What is a literature review? A literature review is your written discussion about the research and theories that have been published about your topic. A literature review is an organized discussion that requires you to summarize and synthesize the information you learn from your references/resources. The goal of the literature review is to tell your readers what other researchers have discovered about the topic and why that matters (to sociology, to society as a whole). To build your literature review, complete the following for each reference: 1) summary: describe the main points of the research… the data source, the research questions, the results/findings 2) evaluation: explain the importance of the research… what was most interesting about the findings? did they study a unique sample of people? what did they contribute to the sociological understanding of your topic? After you have summarized and evaluated each article, look through your notes so that you can identify broad concepts/categories within your references/sources. Your literature review will be comprised of these themes, organized into TWO sections. You will not simply summarize/evaluate each article in turn; you will integrate the key aspects/findings from each source in the sections of your literature review. *Common themes for literature reviews include: 1) theories and concepts used to research the topic, 2) demographic characteristics of the research participants, 3) experiences of people or groups about the topic, and 4) consequences/outcomes related to the topic. *Note: Lyndie can help you figure out your themes… just ask! This literature review will require that you compare and analyze, synthesize and summarize. These are complex tasks that require clear writing, so that your reader understands your exploration of the topic. Once you have identified your themes, you will create section headers (italicized) throughout the literature review. For each theme/topic, should start the sections with a few sentences, to frame the focus of the following paragraphs; these are like sign posts to your readers, guiding their way through the themes of your literature review.
